Title: Stir-Fried Green Beans With Pork And Chilies
Yield: 1 Serving

Ingredients

  1 1/4 lb green beans
     16    cloves garlic
      9    hot green or red chilies
      5 tb vegetable oil
     10 oz lean pork; , ground
    1/2 ts paprika
      1 ts dark brown sugar
      3 tb fish sauce

Instructions

Wash and trim the beans. Cut them crosswise into 1/4-1/3 inch rounds. Peel
the garlic and chop finely. Cut the chilies crosswise into very thin
slices.

Put the oil in a wok and set it over a medium-high heat. When the oil is
hot, put in the garlic and green chilies. Stir and fry until the garlic
turns
golden, then add the pork. Stir and fry, breaking up any lumps, until the
pork has lost its raw look. Put in the beans, paprika, sugar, fish sauce
and 1 1/4 C water. Stir and cook on medium-high for 8-10 minutes or until
beans are tender and most of the water has been absorbed.

My notes: Using red chilies gives the dish a wonderful color. I've used red
jalepenos in the past. I usually have to cook the dish a bit longer than
8-10 minutes, more like 13, to get the beans tender. This is quite hot,
and very good. Serve with lots of rice
